The world quest does NOT need to be up to get an egg. Always subject to change at Blizzard's whim

These can drop the eggs even if the world quest isn't up as I just looted one from the other rare cat Varga

For players that, like me, plan to farm the mounts and other collectibles daily, I have compiled a set of macros with the tom-tom waypoints for rares that drop mounts. I used previous comments by others, especially Boxofbeer, as well as Wowhead maps to compile the coordinates.

Note that not all rares seem to spawn each day. If you discover something that is missing or incorrect, please let me know in the comments and I’ll fix it.

EDIT: After the release of Mac'aree, it seems that a couple changes were made. Puscilla also drops a mount (Biletooth Gnasher) and Kaara the Pale does NOT seem to drop the fel-spotted egg any longer. The macros have been updated to reflect these changes. Many thanks to the people who pointed these errors out to me!

The rares who drop these mounts only yield loot once per day. I have created a macro to track whether they have been killed during this reset:

/run for k,v in pairs({Sabuul=48712, Naroua=48667, Varga=48812, Venomtail=48705}) do print(format("%s: %s", k, IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(v) and "\124cFFFF0000Completed\124r" or "\124cFF00FF00Not completed yet\124r")) end

The macro tracks the following rares (since they drop similar mounts):

Does anyone know the last time this rare spawned on US servers? I've been checking periodically for the last 3 days without seeing it. Last one I need for the achievement.

Lovely how BM pets bug this one out. Literally can't dismiss the pets, Feign Death doesn't work either and the mob just evades until you're literally at the other side of the map.

All Rare Elite Spawns on Argus rotate on a ~4 hour window of opportunity. In that time it will respawn and will be lootable. However, when that window closes the rare spawn will despawn, including ones that are pulled already.

The exemption to this rule is when they are the World Quest target. If that is the case, then the rare spawn will respawn throughout the entire window the WQ is available.

There are rare spawns that drop a fel spotted egg, and rare spawns that drop mounts. There seems to be a limit to how many of these will be active at once. At the moment, it appears that there will never be any more than one fel spotted egg dropper and no more than one mount dropper up at any one time.

The rare elites that drop the eggs are:Naroua - In north eastern Krokuun, from a path at Destiny PointSabuul - In Central Mac'Aree, directly north of the center-most teleport point.Varga - In central Anrotan Wastes, under the spider area and accessible via a fel lava level cave

As you may know, the mounts and pets drop from the Cracked Fel-Spotted Eggs. A Fel-Spotted Egg will turn into a Cracked Fel-Spotted Egg after it has been sitting in your bag for a total of 5 days. The Fel-Spotted Eggs drop from Sabuul, Naroua and Varga on Argus.

Here's the co-ordinates for the rares:

Sabuul: /way Mac'aree 44.2 49.8 Sabuul

Naroua: /way Krokuun 70.5 33.7 Naroua

Varga: /way Antoran wastes 64.3 48.2 Varga

Many of the comments regarding the spawn timer for the rares talk about how all of the Argus rares are on a rotating 4-hour window of opportunity. During the 4 hours the rares will respawn and be lootable. It is notable; however, that you can only receive loot from the rares once a day. The rares will also occasionally be up as a World Quest (WQ). This just means that the rare is guaranteed to be up during the entire time the WQ is active, as opposed to its usual spawn time/s.

Here's a bit more information about my relatively short farming experience:To my knowledge, no one is able to track exactly when the rares will be active in every realm. As previously mentioned, I'm on US Frostmourne, Alliance. I live in NSW, Australia. We are currently on Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT, UTC+11hrs).

I have only been farming the eggs for about 2-3, give or take. I did not kill and loot the rares every single day.

It look me a total of 8 eggs to receive all of the mounts and pets, meaning I only got two of the Aged Yolk which is the only trash item that the eggs drop. I confirm that the eggs do not drop the same mount/pet twice. Therefore, it should not take you very long at all to obtain all of the mounts and pets. For the approximate drop % of each, please click on the above links. The longest part of the farming will be (a) figuring out what time the rares are active on your realm; and (b) getting the eggs to drop from the rares. Again, the drop rates are in the above links.

For me, the rares were up at the following time every day (with the exception of days where the rares were a WQ):

Sabuul: 1.56 pm

Naroua: 2.00 pm

Varga: 5.00 pm

I didn't do much experimenting with spawn times, I simply wrote down the time I killed each of them and logged on at that time each day to kill them again. Based on that fact, I believe they do have set spawn times for each realm. Whether they are different, I don't know. I assume they would be due to the different timezones (i.e. if you are in America and logged on at 2.00 pm your time, it may not be up due to the time difference. If you logged on at 2.00 pm my time you may find it up). Testing those theories would take far too much time for any one person.

To conclude:If you're going to farm the rares for the eggs that contain the mounts and pets, the best possible method for you to follow would be to check the spawn points at various times until you find the rares up. Write down the exact times you kill each rare! Go back the next day at the same time. If they're up, then you know what time you need to log on each day. If not, perhaps my experience will not help you after all.

All-in-all, it is well worth farming these mounts and pets. It's a very easy farm, the drop rates are high and you will more than likely have received all of them after opening a maximum of 10 eggs. If not, again, it's very easy to just keep farming those eggs until you have all of the drops.
